Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

A powerful explosion resounded again, causing huge cracks to open up in the ground. The cracks that were already there, and the large one that ran almost the entire mountain, became larger. The combat power of these two people could not be seen in less.

But after this explosion, everything went silent.

In the center of the explosion, Liam smiled.

"Did you get hurt? Didn't you say you had many ways to get rid of yourself? Looks like you're not so capable then." Liam held his spear aloft, but it had passed within inches of Matthew's neck.

Looking at Matthew's body, he had clearly chosen to explode the stars with fire and wounded himself. Still, Matt was unaffected, and he hadn't been left standing idly by.

His sword was also inches from Liam's neck.

"I will not show my cards when the person in front of me has no intention of hitting me."

From the beginning, Matt had drawn the line where this guy wanted to attack him and knew perfectly well that he didn't plan to hit him. That was why he decided not to use his other tricks. Showing trump cards in this world was pointless, even less so when he had already figured out what his opponent's skill consisted of.

Liam's eyes revealed a strange emotion, and he began to chuckle as he retracted his weapon. "Hahahaha, interesting, you're very interesting, Matthew Dietrich. Honestly, this is the first time I've met someone as interesting as you. Not only can you match me in power when you have far less than me, but you can also read me. Amazing." He spoke honestly and it showed in his look of admiration.

Few people are honest and feel admiration for the person they just faced, so this guy's attitude was admirable. The way he spoke honestly and friendly made a good impression on Matt.

Matt was a little disappointed that the fight was over so soon. He wanted to try more things, but this little bout had given him something important.

He had managed to achieve an Early Understanding of the Path of Control. Since his last days in the Human Empire, he had been trying to understand it, but he almost always made a couple of mistakes when it came to control, which meant that he couldn't understand it properly.

So, the importance of this combat in his current strength is great. Being able to reach that level of power gave him an important plus to his strength and even more if he takes into account that one of his abilities allows him to use the next phase of the Path of Control, for a short period of time.

And if he thinks about skills, he knows that right now, he has an overwhelming advantage over the rest. He long ago fulfilled the requirement to reach 60,000 power, which that skill required him to reach. What he unlocked is something he never expected to unlock.

He had such an amazing ability, and now his combat power was rising drastically, despite the fact that his training had not been based on increasing it. Although his power was still below 65,000, the actual power he had was far higher than what he should have, so he was happy.

"Well, stopping is a good decision. The mountain could be hit hard, and those guys could escalate the situation."

Liam looked up to look at the ones flying in at high speed. "Well, it looks like I've alerted the Academy again." He smiled and at that moment, the directors arrived in front of them along with several other leaders.

They looked at the destruction with a dumbfounded expression.

It had been a long time since they had seen such destruction, but when they moved their vision and looked at the two people standing in front of each other, they could understand what had happened.

'It's this annoying guy again.' Several of them put their hand to their foreheads at seeing so much destruction on a mountain so close to the most important ones. They began to descend.

As they went down, they realized that the battle here did not seem to have a winner. From the wounds on Matt's body, they could understand that the losing side was on him. Liam had wounds on his body, but they weren't as obvious as Matt's.

'It makes sense. Liam Wagner is one of the most experienced Heirs and his power level is past 90,000 already. How terrifying is Matthew Dietrich to be able to take on that spear monster and not lose.' Naturally, they could not understand that those wounds were just explosions caused by Matthew. Even so, several of them shook their heads, unable to comprehend these ridiculously strong geniuses. Your journey continues at empiren/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Have both finished the fight? This is a mess. This is one of the most important mountains in the academy, you know that, don't you?" Ryan Adams said with a sigh.

"Hahaha, Professor Ryan, don't take this too personally. I was just passing through, wanting to find out the strength of our new Youth Leader."

Ryan Adams sighed. "Liam, I've told you many times. Stop asking for trouble. Some of the ones you've tried haven't taken it for the best, and you've ended up making unnecessary enemies." This troublesome student noticeably frazzled Ryan, although he was actually proud.

Ryan Adams was also a Lance user, and at one time, Liam Wagner was his student. Liam Wagner achieved the task of surpassing the master, so Ryan Adams was proud of him for this.

Liam touched his head in embarrassment when that subject was brought up. "It's okay, Professor Ryan. Besides, it was impossible to hold back this time. Don't you understand what it means to be the Leader of the Allens? Or do you just not know it yet?" He was quick to approach Ryan to pump him with questions that Ryan Adams already knew.

He sighed. "Yes, yes, I do know. Forget it; you won't learn." He looked at Matt and nodded to him.

"Young Master, I'll take this boy. You can continue training quietly. Besides, Lady Alice and Miss Isla just got out of class, so you can come back right now if you want to join them." After saying this, Ryan Adams wasted no more time and grabbed Liam Wagner by the arm and took him flying away.

Liam Wagner didn't expect this but quickly said goodbye to Matt. "Matthew Dietrich, let's fight again. I'll make you use all your cards then, hahahaha."

After this, the others who had run here left behind those two, so Matt was left alone in a moment.

'What a strange and lively person.' Matt sighed, though he was smiling.

He had confirmed several things in this fight and now had a much better understanding of his overall strength. Fighting Conrad Wagner was just an appetizer. Beating that guy was normal, and even if Conrad used his ability well and gave him a lot of trouble, Matthew would end up winning with relative ease.

But against Liam Wagner, he couldn't win easily unless he used his trump cards, and even then, Liam Wagner could still use his Vampire Mark and reverse the situation.
